I recall we voted about 80% for Ollie Wines as well. and we know what happened next!!

Nah, it was Toumpas that received the majority of the votes.

Curnow: "Then injury struck, and a dislocated kneecap ruled him out of action for three months, including the mid-year NAB AFL Under-18 Championships with Vic Country. Although at stages it appeared he would not return as opinions swung on the damage sustained in the injury, Curnow came back for the Falcons' final five games of the season and impressed." Note the injury. Recurrent dislocation of the patella has a high chance of following and will f$ck up his early career until fixed by surgery.

Both Brett Anderson and Quayle have is hugely considering taking Oliver at 3

With this coming so close to the draft its hard to not see it happening. Complete midfielder who can turn games around and will impact from day1.

I tell you what Oli, you'll come out smelling roses this draft period if we land your man at 3. You'll have bragging rights for years to come.

I think he can order the vase.

Not so sure he'll go at 3.

We will know in 54 hours.

I think you posted that we will or should take Weideman. If so, who do you see at 7? Do you think Bombers would take both Parish and Oliver leaving Milera, Francis and Curnow?

I think there is more chance of Weideman slipping to 7 if we take Oliver, as Parish will go and they will probably take Francis as well, while GC would love Milera to replace Bennell and they have a couple of big forwards.

I've waxed and waned, but I reckon we'll go the mid at 3, because there just seems some queries over the talls. We need another quality mid and there are less queries. I'd love Parish, but when in doubt go for the big bodied beast. The fact that Oliver also has good speed tips it his way.

So for me it looks like

3 Oliver/Parish

7 Weideman/Curnow or Francis

3.Oliver

7. McKay

i've got nothing against mckay but the 6 players wj was presented with at the mfc draft function didn't include him and a min of 2 of the 6 will be available at p7 (p10)

Either that or we burn him at the stake if Oliver fails. No doubt all of Olisik's bitching and moaning must've been heard by the MFC recruiting team, who didn't want it to go to another level if we passed on Oliver.

Happy with that, would also be happy with Parish and McKay.

I have changed my mind to Francis at 3 and Oliver at 7.

3 Oliver

7 Weideman

If Weideman is gone then McKay

Could be the case. Or maybe whoever is just left out of Parish Weidermann and Francis.

If we take Parish then Watts can suck it up and play forward like he was drafted to

Posted

If I were Jason Taylor I'd select Weideman at #3, then the best mid available at #7. Fortunately for everybody I'm not, so I'll just sit back and be happy with whoever we end up with.

Suspect it might be the other way around.

Parish and Oliver will each be available at pick 3. Neither will be available at pick 7.

Whereas Weideman and Curnow are much more likely to be available at pick 7.

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
